Upon appearing at the fountain, Tamsin was met with a gruesome scene. Two guards, wearing unusual gear that she had never seen before, were lying on the ground. Their armour was littered with countless punctures and cuts, blood pouring profusely from the openings. Tamsin was still reeling from her revival and summoning, which made her slow to respond. It was only thanks to the intervention of the blonde man nearby — presumably another Prime — that the two received the immediate attention they needed.
With a multitude of things running through her mind, the maid finally decided to focus on the more pressing situation at hand: the two wounded individuals. Her own predicament would have to wait.
'U-um...l-let me help!' she finally managed to utter and joined the costumed hero in aiding the guards. Once their armour had been stripped off, Tamsin proceeded to use triage, prioritising the guard who could not feel his legs.
Upon hearing the inquiry from the mysterious man — who, oddly, never lost his winning smile — the servant looked around. But from their current position, it was evident that there was no medical facility, or much of anything, to be found for miles. 'U-unfortunately, we don't have time. We'll have to treat them immediately or they might not survive long enough to receive more professional help.' Tamsin took off her apron and used it to apply pressure to some of the more egregious wounds. She lamented: 'If only I had a first aid kit I could use...'
'W-what the hell are you saying?' the less wounded of the two responded. 'You...you're a Prime, right? Just summon one. D-didn't Omni tell you that you can do that?'
'S-summon it?' the silver-haired girl responded in confusion. She did recall Omni saying that they could summon anything they desired, though just how broad 'anything' was remained a mystery to her.
'Allow me, noble citizen! You tend to them as best as you can! I will procure us the medical supplies that we need!' the superhero exclaimed confidently. Still confused as to how he was going to do that, the maid nevertheless nodded and tended to her patients while letting the muscular man take care of the summoning.
The process took a few minutes. Though she said nothing, Tamsin wasn't entirely certain that the caped crusader himself really knew how it worked either, as he appeared to be somewhat lost himself. But after a bit of a struggle, he managed to produce a gathering of the rainbow substance called omnilium, which began to take shape of the desired item. The servant was almost mesmerised by the phenomenon. Even though she herself came from a world of super-powered individuals, capable of extraordinary feats, being able to summon items practically out of thin air still came off as nothing short of wondrous. She found the idea that she could do the same entirely alien and difficult to internalise.
However, the moaning and groaning of the bleeding guards drew her attention to more important matters. However he may have achieved it, the young woman was still immensely grateful when the costumed man handed her a medical kit she could employ. The apron she was using was entirely drenched in blood.
Cleaning the wounds with the water from the fountain — which had, oddly enough, turned into a sōzu with an audible thump — Tamsin proceeded to apply medical dressing and bandages. It took some effort, but together with the superhero's assistance, they managed to patch up the two men. Wiping the sweat off her brow, the girl with the navy blue eyes sighed as she turned to her would-be assistant: 'They will still need more extensive treatment, but this should at least keep their bleeding in check until help arrives. Do you have any way of contacting help?'
The caped crusader was about to respond, but the less wounded individual cut him off: 'Th-that's fine. We'll call in some backup. They'll help us get back to Coruscant. Thanks for your assistance.' With a pained expression, the man put his helmet back on. Contacting HQ, he informed them of their situation and requested reinforcements. Once he received confirmation, he uttered a painful groan: 'Ugh...we're lucky you two turned out to be among the nicer Primes. I swear...I mean, I know I grabbed that fairy by the ankle to get her to stop, but this reaction was overboard...Must be another one of those junked up psychos that love to sign up for DA...' He sighed: 'We don't get paid enough to deal with this crap...'
'I-I see. You really should-' the maid began to speak before his words fully registered in her mind. She gasped in surprise. DA? It couldn't be what she thought it was, could it? Reluctantly, she asked: 'D-DA?'
Turning to look at the maiden, the guard explained: 'Oh, I mean Dante's Abyss. It's this huge yearly fighting competition that brings out all the nutcases of the Omniverse. It's a really big deal that's broadcasted everywhere. In fact, there are sign ups going for it right now in all the major verses.'
The girl was horror-stricken. Dante's Abyss....a chill went down her spine upon the mere mention of it. It seemed like it had been an eternity since she last heard of the event. But not only was she well acquainted with what it was, she was even a participant in her own universe. The harrowing experience it inflicted upon her was something that had stuck with her for the rest of her days. The thought that it was being hosted even in this unfamiliar place...
It was at that moment that she came upon a startling realisation. Omni said that there were others here, others who sought omnilium as well. If Dante's Abyss, a relic of her own universe, was present, then that meant that there were others from her universe in this place. If so, then perhaps...
Almost without thinking, the maid jumped to her feet. 'T-the fairy! Where did she go?!' In truth, Tamsin was reluctant to pursue someone she now knew to be dangerous, particularly as she was no stranger to poor experiences with ice users. But she also knew that she was completely lost in this place and needed help gathering her bearings. If they were interested in signing up, maybe they could help her locate one of the sign-up stations. It was a long shot, but in her desperation, she was willing to take it. She needed to know...
'Eh?...You're not thinking of going after her, are you? I mean, she went that way, but...' the guard responded, pointing in one of the directions with some hesitation as he was propping up his comrade next to the fountain. Looking carefully, Suzaku was indeed able to make out an object in the far distance. And although it was difficult to tell, she thought she could see two small figures floating towards it.
She was about to break into a dash when she remembered her manners. Turning to the three, she bowed to them. 'T-thank you all for your assistance. I wish you a speedy recovery. And thank you for the help, mister...' she said as she turned to the costumed man, but realised she never learned his name.
'I am All-Might, the enduring Symbol of Peace! And there is no need to thank me, young lady! It was through our combined efforts that we saved these men's lives!' he responded, his shinning grin never leaving his visage.
Nodding, the maid did a curtsy in response: 'A-An honour to meet you, sir. I am Tamsin Suzaku of the Servus guild. I-if you don't mind, please watch over them until help arrives. I-I would do so myself, but...there is something I must find out.' And although she had heard warning calls from behind her, the girl sprinted ahead, trying to catch up to the unpredictable fairies.
